Default abs pump runs with light brake pressure

95 windstar gl 3.8

i can hear a pump running and i can feel pulsing in my brake pedal just before i come to a stop

i wire brushed the abs sprockets and i lightly sanded the sensors... whats is next?

u can definitly hear it, and it can't be ok because the brakes are less effective when the pump starts
